BIENNIAL INSPECTION OF CALAVERAS COUNTY MAIN JAIL AND SUPERIOR COURT
HOLDING, PENALCODE6031.
Dear Sheriff DiBasilio:
On March 23, 2022, staff of the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) provided
pre-inspection briefings to facility supervisors outlining the purpose, process, and necessary
documentation needed for the biennial inspection. Staff gave participants a complete preview
of the visit and provided a schedule of the inspection. BSCC staff provided applicable checklists
and answered any questions.
On June 8, 2022, the 2020-2022 biennial inspection of the Calaveras County Jail and Court
Holding was completed pursuant to Penal Code Section 6031. These inspections were
performed to determine compliance with the Minimum Standards for Local Detention Facilities
as outlined in Titles 15 and 24, California Code of Regulations. In addition, BSCC staff
conducted compliance monitoring pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code Section 209(f) for
the federal Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) for the separation
requirements of juveniles from incarcerated adults.
The complete BSCC inspection report is enclosed and consists of this transmittal letter; the
Procedures Checklists outlining applicable Title 15 sections for both custody and court holding
facilities; and individual Physical Plant Evaluations and Living Area Space Evaluations that
summarize each facility’s physical plant configuration. We encourage the practice of maintaining
a permanent file for historical copies of all inspections that would also include documentation of
corrections made following the inspection. This file should be the first point of reference when
preparing for all future inspections.
LOCAL INSPECTIONS
In addition to the biennial inspection by the BSCC, inspections are also required annually by the
County Health Officer and biennially by the State Fire Marshal or an authorized representative
(Health and Safety Code Sections 101045 and 13146.1).

BSCC INSPECTION
Calaveras County Jail
Title 15, CCR – Procedural and Operational Review (County Jail):
The inspection consisted of a review of the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office Policy and
Procedure Manual1, a site visit to review operations, physical plant, relevant documentation, and
interviews with administration, facility staff, inmates, and collaborative partners.
In reviewing policies and procedures during the 2020-2022 cycle, consideration was given to
agency’s Emergency Suspension of Services (ESS) related to the COVID-19 emergency
measures taken and authorized by the BSCC. For the safety of the inmates and staff, the
Calaveras County Sheriff’s Office had suspended the following services during part or whole of
this inspection cycle:
Section 1061, Inmate Education Programs (March 23, 2020 – May 17, 2021)
Section 1062, Visitation (March 13, 2020 – May 17, 2021)
Section 1070, Individual/Family Service Programs (March 13, 2020 – March 29, 2022)
Section 1072, Religious Observances (March 16, 2020 – March 29, 2022)
Section 1267, Hair Care Services (August 19, 2020 – March 10, 2022)
BSCC Staff reviewed policy and procedures for these sections and any mitigation measures
taken to minimize the impact of the suspension of these services.
No items of noncompliance were identified; please see the procedures checklist for detailed
information.
Title 24, CCR - Physical Plant (County Jail):
There were no changes made to the physical plant and rated capacity remains at 176. Please
see the Physical Plant Evaluation Checklist for more information. There are no outstanding
items of noncompliance with Title 24 minimum standards.
1BSCC reviews only those policy and procedures required by, and applicable to, Title 15, CCR. BSCC staff do not
“approve” policies and procedures or assess them for constitutional or legal issues. Agencies should seek review
through their legal advisor, risk manager, and other persons deemed appropriate for such evaluation.

Calaveras Superior Court Holding
Title 15, CCR – Procedural and Operational Review Inspection (Court Holding):
No items of noncompliance were identified.
Title 24, CCR - Physical Plant (Court Holding):
Title 24, Section 1231.3.8: Seating
In temporary holding and temporary staging cells, seating must be securely fixed to the
floor and/or wall. When bench seating is used, 18 inches (457 mm) of bench is seating
for one person.
Cells D-1 & D-9 contain 13” affixed bench seats and are currently non-compliant.
Upon identification of the non-compliance item, the Calaveras County Sheriff’s Court Holding
Supervisor contacted the Judicial Council of California (JCC) representative. BSCC staff have
received a corrective action plan to correct the deficiency by installation of new benches that
meet the Title 24 seating requirements.
Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) Compliance Monitoring
Minors are not held at the Main Jail and any minor in attendance at the Calaveras County
Superior Court is held in a separate area under the control and supervision of the Calaveras
County Probation Department. No violations of the JJDPA were found.
Corrective Action Plan
There were no Title 15 areas of non-compliance items and action is currently underway to correct
the Title 24 item. There is no need for a corrective action plan.
Technical Assistance
At the conclusion of each inspection, BSCC staff offered an out brief of findings to the Sheriff
and department senior management. This included an immediate review of the inspection and
any non-compliance issues. It also included potential courses of action in correcting those non-
compliance issues. Finally, the out brief provided managers with technical assistance in
identifying hazards that may exist in the facility.
